SRES 363 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A resolution supporting continued United States and Taiwan cooperation in education.

SRES 363 is a non-binding Senate resolution supporting the U.S.-Taiwan Education Initiative, which promotes educational exchanges focused on Mandarin language learning and cultural cooperation. It encourages colleges, universities, and K-12 schools to partner with Taiwan for Mandarin instruction, host teacher exchange programs (like the Department of State’s Teachers of Critical Language Program), and support U.S. educators teaching English in Taiwan through programs such as the Fulbright Exchange. The resolution highlights the demand for Mandarin education in a "censorship and coercion-free environment" amid declining Confucius Institutes. It does not create new laws or funding but formally urges continued collaboration between U.S. educational institutions and Taiwan.
